VERSE I:
F#F#            A#A#
Whoa, Mama Nantucket, she tried to kick the habit
     BB      C#C#    F#F#
But she couldn't and she got stung
F#F#
I tried to relieve her
    A#A#
But she wasn't a believer
BB        C#C#   F#F#
Until she found another one

CHORUS:
D#D#              G#G#   C#C#     F#F#
Da-do-da-li-da-lo-da-la-hee I love it here on the range

Oh-my-ty-yi-yippee, I would love it more if it changed

F#F#               A#A#
Oh, Bobby with a dollar, he was sure he found the answer
    BB      C#C#   F#F#
But it might take a little time
F#F#
Playing follow the leader
    A#A#
He was sure would be a winner
   BB     C#C#      F#F#
But I had other things on my mind

A#A#             BB    C#C#     F#F#
Oh-my-ty-yi-yippee, I would love it more if it changed

BRIDGE:
   BB      C#C#   F#F#
Oh, I see all the people running
BB   C#C#     F#F#
Coming from miles around

Well I don't like to quarrel but what about tomorrow

Will it be the same as the past

And I hope that it happens fast
